Problem-Based Learning (PBL) during the Physiotherapist Training
The training is not organised according to subjects, but according to topics. The students rather learn in a problem (case)-oriented way, rather than in a subject-oriented way. On the basis of detailed training block books and instructed by a teacher, they discuss the case study and formulate their learning and skill objectives. These learning and skill objectives are completed and evaluated - again under instruction of a teacher.

Problem-Based Learning - the New Teaching and Learning Culture Brings about a Role Change for Teachers and Students
In a problem-based learning environment the role of the pupil changes to that of a student. In the new learning environment the student, who had become a consuming and passive pupil during the conventional theoretical learning classes, is now forced to act independently, self-supportively, self-reflectively, communicatively and will be capable of working as a team member.
Advantages of Problem-Based Learning
The educational institutes in our knowledge-oriented society require more than highly-qualified teachers and perfect technological equipment. They need a culture of learning which is based on the principle of continual learning for life.
